Ask and You Shall Receive

A week ago I was at 27% of my support goal. Today I am now at 43%!!! And that’s just counting received support, not pledges! I learned a great lesson this week. As I was making my calls to everyone and anyone I knew to share my ministry and invite them to be a part of my support team, TWO of them said they’d give simply because I’d asked. One person had been looking for a church to call home for the last several months and in the meantime had held on to her tithe. She was excited to hear about what I was doing and glad to be able to contribute in a big way to help send me to the Dominican Republic—simply because I’d asked for her help! So even though it feels awkward and can be draining, I will boldly continue to ask others for their help and let God do the providing.
